Disclaimer - I am a Black and Gold fan.

Not sure why folks are down on the officiating.... Every called penalty looked legit IMO with the possible exception of one. The roughing the ball holder was possibly iffy, I'm not sure all the ins and outs of that rule. I didn't think the hit was deliberate, but he did run into him.

The Ben touch down I couldn't tell if he was down or not, so no complaints.
Harrison's run looked legit to me
Santonio's feet were in to win the game

Even the 100+ yards in penalties and the holding that caused the safety were for the most part no brainers, all were cought by TV and were legit.

All in all a very exciting game to watch. The first drive with the TD call back, the second attempt that ended in a field goal, 2nd qtr drive that AZ put together that almost got a TD but was intercepted, 4th qtr drives by both teams. While last years was touching, not as exciting as this game, but YMMV.
